Stored procedures
Fills a calendar that was retrieved beforehand: the events corresponding to the calendar are retrieved (some criteria may be specified). This function must be used after the call to GglListCalendar.
Example
// Connection
Cnt is gglConnection
...
IF GglConnect(Cnt) = False THEN
Error(ErrorInfo())
RETURN
END
arrCalendars is array of 0 gglCalendar
arrCalendars = GglListCalendar(Cnt)
// First calendar
Calendar is gglCalendar = arrCalendars[1]
// Example of different calls to GglFillCalendar
// Retrieve all the future events:
GglFillCalendar(Cnt, Calendar)
// Retrieve all the forthcoming events containing "PC Soft"
GglFillCalendar(Cnt, Calendar, "", "", "PC Soft")
// Retrieve all the forthcoming events that do not contain "work"
GglFillCalendar(Cnt, Calendar, "", "", "-work")
// Retrieve all the future events
GglFillCalendar(Cnt, Calendar, TimeSys())
// Retrieve all the past events
GglFillCalendar(Cnt, Calendar, "", TimeSys())
// Retrieve the events between 01/01/2008 and 01/01/2009 included
GglFillCalendar(Cnt, Calendar, "20080101", "20090102")
// Other possibility:
GglFillCalendar(Cnt, Calendar, "20080101", "20090101235959")
// Retrieve the events between 11/01/2008 and 12/01/2008 excluded
GglFillCalendar(Cnt, Calendar, "20081101", "20081201")
// Browse the events of a calendar
Evt is gglEvent
FOR EACH Evt OF Calendar
Trace(Evt.Title)

Syntax
<Result> = GglFillCalendar(<Google connection> , <Calendar> [, <Beginning of events> [, <End of events> [, <String to find>]]])
<Result>: Boolean
  • True if the events have been retrieved,
  • False otherwise. To get the details of the error, use ErrorInfo.
<Google connection>: gglConnection variable
Name of the variable of type gglConnection to be used. This connection was validated by GglConnect.
<Calendar>: gglCalendar variable
Name of gglCalendar variable to fill.
<Beginning of events>: Optional DateTime
Start date and time of events to retrieve.
If <Beginning of events> and <End of events> are not specified, only the future events are retrieved (events from today's date).
If only <Beginning of events> is specified, all the events found after this date will be retrieved (the limit date defined by Google is 01/01/2031).
<End of events>: Optional DateTime
End date and time of events to retrieve.
If <Beginning of events> and <End of events> are not specified, only the future events are retrieved (events from today's date).
If only <End of events> is specified (in this case, <Beginning of events> is equal to an empty string), all the events found before this date are retrieved (the limit date defined by Google is 01/01/1970).
<String to find>: Optional character string
Text to find in the calendar events.
If this parameter is specified, only the events containing the specified text will be listed. The search is performed on the name and description of the calendar. This search is not case sensitive.
This parameter corresponds to an empty string ("") by default.
Remarks

Managing dates and times

  • The dates are automatically converted to the UTC format.
  • If only the date is specified (without specifying the hours, minutes and seconds):
    • in <Beginning of events>, all the events found from the specified date at 0 hour 0 minute 0 second will be taken into account.
    • in <End of events>, all the events found until the specified date at 0 hour 0 minute 0 second will be taken into account (therefore, the events of the day will not be taken into account).
  • Don't forget to configure the time zone and the time of the computer that performs the search.

Possible error cases:

  • The Internet connection is not valid.
  • The authentication was not performed properly.
  • The XML response of the server cannot be read.
  • The calendar was not found.
